X Kilt - Take 3

[###KILTEDKIWI###]

Thanks again to Alan (for his instructions), and ahhhhh yeah the wife...

The best thing about these cheap home built kilts, is that i won't feel bad when i go to the super 14 ruggers next year wearing it (Highlanders supporter), spill speights on it, get bottled (seriously i took one in the eye a couple of years ago, from, I swear she was 8 years old, her father sat down fairly quickly and reprimanded her...lucky for him) random pies and hot chips thrown at me in the terraces...

completed a Black Watch X kilt (when i say me, i mean, that i did the marking out, cutting and the ironing, the better half did all the manual labour of machining...) , cost me 40 NZD for the material (had velcro left from previous x kilts), and have enough to make one for a mate who is shorter, sorry about the pics, i found my web cam can actually show the tartan, where as the digi camera shows it all black.








still needs an iron and a de chalking, but thats by the by...

highlanders footy team mentioned above.

Looks great! Are the Highlanders what I used to know as Otago Province?

They were the Otago highlanders, but seeing that most of the team is from southland and north otago, they dropped the otago name.

there still is a Otago team (national provincial champions)(Like southland etc)

Like Auckland provincial, their super 14 team is the Blues, and includes northland etc...
